The smaller components become, the more difficult it is to create patterns in an economical and reproducible way, according to an interdisciplinary team of Penn State researchers who, using sound waves, can place nanowires in repeatable patterns for potential use in a variety of sensors, optoelectronics and nanoscale circuits.

"What this University is going to lead will be more than a pioneering research center or an economic engine for Pennsylvania and America for years to come: what you're going to do is lead a modern-day incubator for what sets us apart -- the greatest force that the world has ever known," said President Barack Obama Feb. 3 at Penn State's University Park campus. Watch a brief video summarizing the president's visit and Penn State's research leadership at a new national Energy Innovation Hub.

In his policy speech today (Feb. 3) at Penn State, President Barack Obama advocated alternate energy research and increased energy efficiency. Penn State has more than 500 researchers working in the areas of energy and the environment, centered through the Penn State Institutes of Energy and the Environment, which are working to advance the energy and environmental missions of the University. Following are five videos from Penn State's Advancing Energy series that highlight a small sample of the variety of cutting-edge energy research at Penn State.

Three Penn State faculty have been named Evan Pugh Professors, joining a list of only 59 others thus recognized since the title's inception in 1960. Evan Pugh Professorships are the highest honor the University bestows on its faculty. The latest honorees are Judith S. Bond, Distinguished Professor and Chair of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Medicine; Donald C. Hambrick, Smeal Chaired Professor of Management, Smeal College of Business; and Thomas Mallouk, DuPont Professor of Materials Chemistry and Physics, Eberly College of Science.

Beyond petroleum
Is hydrogen the answer?
"I will get right to the point," declared Nobel laureate Richard Smalley, speaking before Congress. "Energy is the single most important problem facing humanity today. We must find an alternative to oil. We need to somehow provide clean, abundant, low-cost energy to the six billion people that live on the planet today, and the 10-plus billion that are expected by the middle of this century."

Sitting amid a tangle of wires and plastic tubing, Morgan Mihok examines a murky orange concoction, her thin frame hunched over to get a better look at what she hopes is the secret to cheaper, cleaner fuel. The vial is capped with an air-tight rubber stopper. Two long needles connected to plastic tubes penetrate the seal, allowing a constant flow of argon gas to purge all traces of atmospheric air from the vial.

"The problem with technetium is not just that it's radioactive," says Sherman Ponder. "The problem is that it lasts forever."
